Prediction thread.

I need to pin this one.

No doubt libs will all the sudden be ok with a dem president using any new "powers" interpreted by the Supreme Court for the presidency right now.

We all know this is true, and all this protest is just tribal political theater.

Why shouldn’t they? Rules shouldn’t just apply to one group. That would be real hypocrisy. I’m happy for them to break the law to bring us affordable healthcare and housing instead of fleeing the government and making their friends rich.

Not at all just pointing out the reality of things

Very simple really. If you are suggesting by "prediction" that when Democrats have a President at some point in the future they will enjoy the "new powers" of the Executive Office that Trump enjoys today. Since your OP was absent specific criticism of these new powers in Trump's hands we can safely conclude that you are only interested in predictive whataboutism.

Worthless retreat, but noted anyway. We'll put a pin in plenty of your predictive whataboutism threads then.

Chastising others in the future is better than having to stand up in the present.

You are showing that you would rather keep this cycle of division going until the country tears it's self apart.

So that makes it fair then right? Both sides get to use the powers.

Hopefully by the end of 2032, MAGA will no longer be a thing.
Just like when the Tea Party movement took a shit, everyone tried to deny they ever were a part of the "I hate Obama" group.
Same with MAGA - the former red hatters will deny every being part of that.

If we collectively agree to dismiss the law and constitution legitimizing those tactics then yes both parties can do it. Why would you expect differently? That’s the real hypocrisy. Enjoy it while it lasts cause that short sighted boomerang is headed right for Republicans. I’m here for it. Ideally I’d prefer Republicans to police themselves but we see how well that’s working out in sycophant cabinet meetings and a rigged court.

you can bet your ass the next dem president will take advantage of ehatever the SC has decided.

The opposition will just reverse when the dem gets in. As well as the justification.

Some of those decisions were made under Biden and he nobly chose not to. Or foolishly, for the cynical.

IF a Dem president tried half the shit convicted felon Donald Trump has, the Supreme Court will revise its decisions for sure. All of a sudden broad presidential immunity won’t look so good to them.

Be specific. What new "power" does Trump have that is unconstitutional?

There are serious questions about Trump's strikes against alleged Venezuelan "drug" boats. Trying to govern with EO's. Diverting military funds to pay for his wall. Major violations of the emoluments clauses. The lists goes on....

I predict that in early 2026, as the midterm election campaign season gets into swing, the democrats will gradually tone down their extreme rhetoric, anti-ICE riots, etc. They will want to come off as sane by election day.
